Problem: An application violating the architectural rules regarding
operation dependencies and having specific Register Stack Engine (RSE)
state at the time of the violation, may result in an illegal operation
fault and invalid RSE state. Such faults may initiate a cascade of
repeated illegal operation faults within OS interruption handlers.
The specific behavior is OS dependent.
Implication: An application causing an illegal operation fault with
specific RSE state may result in a series of illegal operation faults
and an eventual OS stack overflow condition.
Workaround: OS interruption handlers that switch to kernel backing
store implement a check for invalid RSE state to avoid the series
of illegal operation faults.
The core of the workaround is the RSE_WORKAROUND code sequence
inserted into each invocation of the SAVE_MIN_WITH_COVER and
SAVE_MIN_WITH_COVER_R19 macros. This sequence includes hard-coded
constants that depend on the number of stacked physical registers
being 96. The rest of this patch consists of code to disable this
workaround should this not be the case (with the presumption that
if a future Itanium processor increases the number of registers, it
would also remove the need for this patch).
Move the start of the RBS up to a mod32 boundary to avoid some
corner cases.

squatting in when built with this patch and CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y

This patch implements Xen save/restore and migration.
Saving is triggered via xenbus, which is polled in
drivers/xen/manage.c. When a suspend request comes in, the kernel
prepares itself for saving by:
1 - Freeze all processes. This is primarily to prevent any
partially-completed pagetable updates from confusing the suspend
process. If CONFIG_PREEMPT isn't defined, then this isn't necessary.
2 - Suspend xenbus and other devices
3 - Stop_machine, to make sure all the other vcpus are quiescent. The
Xen tools require the domain to run its save off vcpu0.
4 - Within the stop_machine state, it pins any unpinned pgds (under
construction or destruction), performs canonicalizes various other
pieces of state (mostly converting mfns to pfns), and finally
5 - Suspend the domain
Restore reverses the steps used to save the domain, ending when all
the frozen processes are thawed.

Add code to:
1. Deal with the console page being canonicalized. During save, the
console's mfn in the start_info structure is canonicalized to a pfn.
In order to deal with that, we always use a copy of the pfn and
indirect off that all the time. However, we fall back to using the
mfn if the pfn hasn't been initialized yet.
2. Restore the console event channel, and rebind it to the existing irq.

to scale the size of the physical-to-machine array; it ends up using

The pvfb backend indicates dynamic mode support by creating node
feature_resize with a non-zero value in its xenstore directory.
xen-fbfront sends a resize notification event on mode change. Fully
backwards compatible both ways.
Framebuffer size and initial resolution can be controlled through
kernel parameter xen_fbfront.video. The backend enforces a separate
size limit, which it advertises in node videoram in its xenstore
directory.
xen-kbdfront gets the maximum screen resolution from nodes width and
height in the backend's xenstore directory instead of hardcoding it.
Additional goodie: support for larger framebuffers (512M on a 64-bit
system with 4K pages).
Changing the number of bits per pixels dynamically is not supported,
yet.

Without console= arguments on the kernel command line, the first
console to register becomes enabled and the preferred console (the one
behind /dev/console). This is normally tty (assuming
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is enabled, which it commonly is).
This is okay as long tty is a useful console. But unless we have the
PV framebuffer, and it is enabled for this domain, tty0 in domU is
merely a dummy. In that case, we want the preferred console to be the
Xen console hvc0, and we want it without having to fiddle with the
kernel command line. Commit b8c2d3dfbc
did that for us.
Since we now have the PV framebuffer, we want to enable and prefer tty
again, but only when PVFB is enabled. But even then we still want to
enable the Xen console as well.
Problem: when tty registers, we can't yet know whether the PVFB is
enabled. By the time we can know (xenstore is up), the console setup
game is over.
Solution: enable console tty by default, but keep hvc as the preferred
console. Change the preferred console to tty when PVFB probes
successfully, unless we've been given console kernel parameters.

Rather than making _PAGE_* constants signed, and then relying on
sign-extension to make sure that masks derived from them are wide
enough, just explicitly type them pteval_t. This guarantees that they
and any derived values are the right size for the current pte format.
The reliance on sign extension is fragile, and invokes some very
subtle corners of the C type system.

While debugging latencies in the RT kernel, I found that it would be nice
to be able to filter away functions from the trace than just to filter
on functions.
I added a new interface to the debugfs tracing directory called
set_ftrace_notrace
When dynamic frace is enabled, this lets you filter away functions that will
not be recorded in the trace. It is similar to adding 'notrace' to those
functions but by doing it without recompiling the kernel.
Here's how set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace interact. Remember, if
set_ftrace_filter is set, it removes all functions from the trace execpt for
those listed in the set_ftrace_filter. set_ftrace_notrace will prevent those
functions from being traced.
If you were to set one function in both set_ftrace_filter and
set_ftrace_notrace and that function was the same, then you would end up
with an empty trace.
the set of functions to trace is:
set_ftrace_filter == empty then
all functions not in set_ftrace_notrace
else
set of the set_ftrace_filter and not in set of set_ftrace_notrace.

Based on Roland's patch. This approach was suggested by Austin Clements
from the very beginning, and then by Linus.
As Austin pointed out, the execing task can be killed by SI_TIMER signal
because exec flushes the signal handlers, but doesn't discard the pending
signals generated by posix timers. Perhaps not a bug, but people find this
surprising. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10460
